Ma Eliminated by the Rising Wang

It all started rather innocent with an under-the-gun min raise to 160,000 by Chun Yu Ma and a flat-call by Yang Wang in the hijack, which also brought Jesse Lonis in the big blind along. The A♥K♠4♥ flop was checked to Ma who bet 225,000. Only Wang called and they checked the K♣ on the turn.

That brought the 7♣ on the river on which Ma checked. Wang bet 550,000 to then call the check-shove for 1.9 million with the marginally covering stack.

Ma showed the 10♣9♣ for a bluff gone wrong and Wang claimed the pot with A♦J♦ for aces and kings.
